This table is revised annually and is used by the court to order defendants to pay some or all of the cost of their defense. This regulation is not mandated by federal law. There is no cost to any state or federal agency created by this regulation. However, this regulation provides the table for an assessment of defense cost against private persons for the professional services of public defenders or assigned counsel. There is no environmental impact. K.A.R , K.A.R , K.A.R , K.A.R and K.A.R establish the hourly rate to be paid to the private attorneys who accept court appointments to defend indigent persons in the absence of a public defender. The rate to be paid to assigned counsel is increased from $62 per hour to $65 per hour and each of the caps for the severity level of the charge is similarly increased from the cap at $62 per hour to the cap at $65 per hour. These amendments reflect action taken by the board under its statutory authority to adjust the rate of compensation to more closely approach the rate set by statute of $80 per hour. Patricia A.
